“I-I ran away,” hagulgol ko na tuluyan na ngang bumigay nang makalayo na sa Twin Towers ng Atkinson. “You what?!” gulat akong tinignan ni Franz mula sa salamin sa harap. Hindi ko na nga lang siya nakausap ng maayos dahil tanging luha ko na lamang ang naghahari sa akin ngayon. Parang pinipiga ang puso ko. Gustong-gusto ko pang ipaglaban si Alaric at maikasal sa kanya pero ayaw kong madamay siya sa gulo ng buhay ko. Kung ikapapahamak niya lang din, ay huwag na lang. Yes, I am the billionaire’s runaway bride... --•❦•-- Si Myrthala Zachra Armani Laurenco ay namulat sa isang marangyang pamilya. Puno ng pagmamahal ng mga tao sa kanyang paligid kaya gano'n na lamang siya nalugmok nang sa isang iglap ay natuon ang atensyon ng lahat sa kanyang bruhang pinsan. Nawala ang lahat sa kanya: pagiging heiress, atensiyon ng ama at ang mismong fiance. She became a murder suspect and she's been hated by everyone around her. Pakiramdam niya ay pinaglalaruan at inabandona na siya ng mundo. Not until she met Alaric Atkinson. Ang tusong bilyonaryo at tagapagmana ng mga Atkinsons. Kaya ng malamang half-brother siya ng dating fiance, kinuha niya ang oportunidad na ito upang alukin siya ng kasal. 'Yon nga lang, ang kasal para kay Alaric ay sakal. Ngunit paano kung sa gitna ng kanilang laro ay may mabuo? Malilinis pa kaya ni Thala ang kanyang pangalan o mauuwi lamang siya sa kapahamakan? Where will Thala be taken by her impulsiveness and her blossoming seduction towards her brother-in-law? Is Alaric Atkinson a predator or a prey? An ally or an enemy?

"After hiding from me for three years, I've finally found you," I say to her, my eyes scanning her from head to toe. "I wasn't hiding. I was simply living my life without you," she scoffs at me, crossing her arms. "It doesn't matter anyway, because here you are now. You look beautiful." "Mr Partridge, I'd appreciate it if we kept things between us strictly professional." There she goes again, calling me by my last name, which was once her own. "We're not working right now. Let's just talk." "Mr Partridge, have a good evening." As she walks away, I'm so captivated by her confidence that I only stand in place and watch her the entire time. I see no trace of the vulnerable woman who was once my wife. Not only is she bold and beautiful, but she hates me. ~~~ Three months after her miscarriage, Layla is served divorce papers by her billionaire husband, Nathan.

After my grandmother passed away, I returned from my countryside home to Oberis City, ready to tidy things up and prepare for my wedding. But no sooner had I arrived at the wedding planning company, ready to book an extravagant, luxurious wedding, than the staff there delivered a piece of news that struck me like a thunderbolt. The groom—my groom—had already gotten married. Three months ago, Cain Bassett, the eldest son of the wealthiest family's conglomerate, tied the knot with his childhood sweetheart, the daughter of the mayor of Lith City—Mary Schindler. Now here I stood, frowning in front of the grand gates of Cain's villa. But the thing is, I am Mary Schindler, the daughter of the mayor of Lith City.

On the eve of a surgery, I voluntarily resign from my position as lead surgeon. My colleagues sneer behind my back and mock me openly. "And this guy's supposed to have a PhD from abroad? Looks more like he bought a degree from some no-name university." "Can't even handle a challenge without running—what kind of doctor is that?" In my last life, I gave up competing in a general practitioner skills competition to take on this very surgery. But because the other lead surgeon violated protocol during the operation, it ended in a serious medical accident. My sister, the head of the department, pinned all the blame on me. Even my girlfriend stood firmly on their side, accusing me of incompetence. Overnight, I went from being a respected medical PhD to the disgrace of the hospital. I couldn't prove the mistake wasn't mine. I was fired and faced criminal charges. My parents, once so proud of me, pointed at me in rage. "We don't have a son who plays god with people's lives!" Crushed by shame and despair, I spiraled into deep depression and jumped from the hospital roof. But now, I open my eyes again. I'm back—back to the night before the surgery.

"I, Darius Amaruk, reject you, Isabella Grey, as my mate!" I heard him, the man who was supposed to be my mate, spoke the words with contempt drilling in his voice.*********The night Isabella was rejected by her mate, she left her pack to cool off her head and got harassed by a rogue wolf. The deed led to pregnancy. And Isabella was left all alone in the world to fend for herself and her son. The last of her threshold began when she was taken in by the same rogue alpha and she discovered that he had no memory of what happened that night. Despite the growing feelings between them, her son -their son- became the reason why he would never mate her.

I had promised my son that when he turned three, the three of us would go to the amusement park together as a family. But he never lived to see that birthday. My husband, Daniel Shaw, who was a perfect match for the bone marrow transplant, disappeared just before the surgery—phone off, leaving no trace. Without him, our son lost his last chance at survival. When Daniel finally came home, he asked, "Where's our son? Weren't we supposed to take him to the amusement park for his birthday?" Then his eyes fell on the urn. That was the moment he truly lost his mind.

On the night of my fifth wedding anniversary with Sebastian Gray, he lit up the entire city with fireworks for me. All our friends kept saying what a wonderful man he was—so loving, so romantic. The kind of husband every woman dreams of. At the grand finale, the fireworks burst into words that lit up the night sky: Happy Birthday, Jen. Jennifer Kingsley was Sebastian's first love, his ideal woman, the one who had always lingered in his heart. Sebastian looked at me, his expression almost sheepish. "Ah, it's Jen's birthday too. They must have mixed up the fireworks." That night, Jennifer posted on her social media: "Men are boys till the day they die, always fumbling their way through romance." She added a picture of the fireworks, along with a photo of her and Sebastian standing close under the dazzling display. I liked her post and left a comment: "From school to altar—what a touching love story. When's the wedding?"
